Kingfisher Place, Chartham

A spacious and beautifully presented, detached family home located in a small and peaceful development in the village of Chartham, built by the prestigious Pentland Homes in 2013. The development is surrounded by idyllic countryside and lakes yet is well connected, with quick access onto the A28 connecting Canterbury and Ashford. It has a friendly feel, with a warm sense of community and has its own children's playpark and field, perfect for outdoor games and for kicking a football around!

The property has plenty of kerb appeal, with an attractive façade of cream coloured weather boarding and brick, with a paved driveway where you will find an electric vehicle charger. Once inside, you have a spacious entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor, substantial understairs storage and a large WC. There is a stylish, family kitchen/breakfast room to the front which has been fitted with contemporary high gloss wall and base units and has an integrated fridge/freezer, microwave and double electric oven with grill, dishwasher and a five-ring gas hob. The kitchen has polished tiled flooring, spotlights under the units and there is plenty of space for a dining table creating an ideal social space.

Double glass doors at the end of the hallway open into a beautiful, bright living room facing the rear garden which leads to a glorious sunroom with an insulated roof. With wonderful views of the garden, the current owners have a large dining table in here, perfect for hosting friends and family. Both the living room and sunroom have smart' blinds which are controllable by a remote control, app or you can link it up to your Alexa. The current owners have cleverly converted half of the garage to create that all important utility and children's playroom, perfect for keeping the downstairs neat and tidy. You still have a decent amount of storage space left in the garage, accessed internally by a door from this room. The ground floor features underfloor heating throughout.

Moving up the stairs to a half landing you will find a large double bedroom which has built-in wardrobes. Two further steps take you up to the main landing which leads to three further bedrooms, two of which are spacious doubles and feature built-in wardrobes, and a family bathroom. The double to the front has a modern en-suite shower room. All four bedrooms are good sizes, even with the smallest being large enough to house a small double bed. The family bathroom is beautifully appointed and feels very luxurious, with a large shower unit and a separate bath.

OUTSIDE

Externally, the property benefits from a good-sized family garden which is landscaped and has two aspects. The lower is laid to lawn and provides a shady area for the kids to kick a football around and the upper garden is mostly paved, perfect for alfresco dining and drinks. There is a good amount of space down the side of the house, where there is currently a greenhouse and a gate providing access back round to the front.

Residents have exclusive use of the development's playpark and field and there is a management charge of £301 amount payable per year to maintain this.
